Eye pain and light sensitivity

[[so...]]

I have eye pain and light sensitivity --- I rarely post due to this problem.

Upsetting and painful///

 

I've been to an eye doctor--and going back again.  But need to know if anyone else has this problem?

What is going on with the eye ---if this is due to wd?

 

Thanks in advance,

Yes,, very common. I had to wear sunglasses everywhere I went, and couldn't tolerate computer monitor or TV. Oncoming headlights were a nightmare so I couldn't drive at night, even reflective road signs would bother my eyes. I couldn't wear my prescription glasses for a long time. My wife does all of the driving for nearly two years now.

I did try vitamin A and it did help, but was short lived.

 

Not a bad idea to see the eye doc to rule out anything other than withdrawals.

Big time. I have to turn the brightness down on monitors and also cannot drive at night.

Hi Sofar,

I too am experiencing eye pain & light sensitivity. It is a withdrawal symptom...hypersensitivity to light, sound and other stimuli.

My eyes also tire easily when reading or looking at a computer screen.

I find wearing sunglasses outside helps with this even on a cloudy day !

Thanks for your feedback. Again --- reassurance ---

 

You have real pain that feels like its in your eyes and around your eyes?

 

And it's difficult to read computer screens and yes the TV too..

 

So --- if the pain goes away after not viewing or reading the computer or phone-- this is normal withdrawal??!!

 

Thanks again--

Hi Sofar,

Yes it is real pain for me best way to describe it is the eyes and surrounding area feel sore and bruised to the touch. I get a very similar pain in sinus area also.

These are withdrawal symptoms but wouldn't do any harm to have a medical check to give you peace of mind.
